 - Start building MacOS packages for Apple Silicon hadrdware [#9423](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/9423).
 
+- Remove support for setting shared subscriptions using the non-standard `$queue` feature [#9412](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/9412).
+  Shared subscriptions are now part of the MQTT spec. Use `$share` instead.

 - 通过 `node.global_gc_interval = disabled` 来禁用全局垃圾回收 [#9418](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/9418)。
 
+- 删除了老的共享订阅支持方式， 不再使用 `$queue` 前缀 [#9412](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/9412)。
+  共享订阅自 MQTT v5.0 开始已成为协议标准，可以使用 `$share` 前缀代替 `$queue`。
+
 ## 修复
 
 - 优化命令行实现, 避免输入错误指令时, 产生不必要的原子表消耗 [#9416](https://github.com/emqx/emqx/pull/9416)。
